Schubert: String Quartet Death And The Maiden D. 810

The Oxford-based Sollar Quartet make their first appearance in Wallingford with two familiar works framing the World Première of a new quartet, Wildflower by Judith Ward. As well as being Director of Music at the Wallingford Parish Churches, Judith Ward is an emerging composer whose choral works are gaining attention, with a recent broadcast on Radio 3. Wildflower, which is the second world première of our season, is inspired by poppies appearing as Summer progresses, and has influences from folk music.
